Bugs
The fluorescent lights on over my work benches are left on and that attracts a great many bugs, especially moths. Here's a collection of some I found this morning.
Now here are a couple of mothy questions to ponder:
(A) If we can get by with a single species of hummingbird here on the mountain, why does it take a zillion different months?
(B) If, by nature, moths are such nocturnal creatures, why are they so attracted to the light?
Heh, does this critter think I'm buying into that "horns on head - mouth agape - white teeth bared - poised on front paws - ready to devour you" look?
And, yes, the first computer "bug" was a moth that got into the first ENIAC electronic computer and gummed up the relays that performed the logical operations. Unexpected errors in the operation of computer programs have been said to be produced by "bugs" ever since. They are, of course, usually man-made boo-boos in the computer program coding, although there are a few folks around who still try to blame their bugs on the hardware. But we all know who they are, don't we?
